2018-19 ePal project

This week the grade 7 classes which meet on A days received letters from a city in France called, Angoulême. We are traveling virtually to their city using Google Earth and comparing and contrasting their culture with our own. We are visiting their city and school websites to gather more data. We are breaking down possible cultural stereotypes by explaining to our epals how we celebrate Halloween and Thanksgiving. We are using basic French to ask them how they are doing, talk about likes and dislikes, and describe ourselves. We enjoyed receiving typical French bonbons! We sent them a Halloween package sharing our favorite candies as well. We look forward to more cultural sharing and global collaboration around the holidays! A plus!
